Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

the effect of the proposal on the character and appearance of the area and the adjacent locally listed public house
the effect of the proposal on the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers
whether the proposal would promote sustainable means of transport and the availability of on-street parking
whether the proposal would secure an affordable housing contribution

What decided it

The adverse impacts on the character and appearance of the area, the adjacent locally listed heritage asset, and the living conditions of neighbouring occupiers, combined with the failure to secure sustainable transport provisions, outweighed the moderate benefits of additional housing and affordable housing contribution.

Framework references: 124

Plan policies cited: Policy D1, Policy D2, Policy D3, Policy A1, Policy T2, Policy DM1, Policy H4

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Every English appeal since 2016, with the letter behind it wherever the Inspectorate published one. Searched by meaning as well as by words, with the key case law counted live across the letters.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
